Blazer and Breton Stripes

Weigh Anchor! I can't help but feel a little Sailor-esq in this classics outfit I paired up the other day! This stripey linen breton striped tee from Topshop has been a bit of a fave staple at the mo, amazing to pop on with jeans, cardigans-you name it, but I'm sure you guys already know that as it's a bit of a basic in every gal's wardrobe! And of course, the fitted blazer is another one of those everyday essentials! I got this blazer for Christmas but with all the rubbish weather we've been having I've not managed to wear it much! It's from Mango and has such a cute cut to it. I love the ribbon lapels and sharp lines! I know what you're thinking.. another jacket?! Honestly though I wish I could have a whole wardrobe of them! Make-up wise I went fairly natural with some new goodies I will share with you all soon! I also added a dash of my MAC Ladybug Lipstick which I still love and have had for ageess now. I'm going to be sad the day my trusty red ends!  

What do you guys think?

 

Back to Black

Hiya guys! I'm excited to bring you all a new outfit post today as it was so lovely and spring like yesterday, I managed to grab a little bit of time to get out and do some photos! I have been meaning to blog about this dress for aggess as it's been a fave for a few nights out recently! The lovely people at Bravesoul sent it over to me and it's bodycon fit in a peplum style is so flattering and comfortable if ever I get stuck with what to wear, I know it's always a good'un to pop on! The gold stud detailing around the neckline also adds a nice bit of pezazz to the dress so as far as LBD's go, I'm a big fan!

Here I've gone for a bit of a black on black look and worn it with my River Island faux leather sleeve blazer, H&M bowler and Platform Wedge heels from New Look. I saw this blazer just before Christmas in River Island and it was one of things I just had to have. I've loved wearing it with jeans to dresses as it's so easy to dress up or dress down! Make-up wise I added a dash of my new Maybelline Coloursensational lipstick in Fuchsia Flash for a bit of a colour pop to break up the outfit!
